-The legislative machinery of the
Province is once again in motion, the
Legislature having opened on the 7th
inet,, with the usual formalities. This
is the 13th parliament of Ontario, and
we trust no superstition as to "13"
will cause any disaster to the in-
dividual members or the Government,

---One of ,the most serious blunders
made by any Goveenment in recent
years was made by the Laurier Gov-
errtxnent in an agreement made with
the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Co.
By the insertion of one word, that
•ibould not have been there, the Do-
minion of Canada is obliged to pay
ten million dollars more than it should
have. paid. When the matter came
up in the House last week, and pro-
vision waernade to pay the ten million
dollars, neither Sir Wilfrid Laurier
nor one of his supporters had a, single
word to say in defence of the trans-'
action. As the Courts and the Privy
Council have decided it must be paid,
there is no other way out of the
blunder, but it was a costly one for
Oanada. It certainly was time for
a change.
-At the annual meeting of the
Shorthorn Breeders Association, last
week, President Peter White, K. 0„
predicted that the price of meat would
steadily increase, and that the beef
supply of the future would be the
product of mixed farming. Yet
neither to the butcher nor the pro-
ducer would there be increased profit.
A few years ago beef could be pro-
duced on the Western prairies practi-
cally at the cost of herding. Under
such conditions the Eastern farmer,
on high-priced land, could not com-
pete with cheaply -produced Western
beef. But, under new conditions, the
beef supply must come from sections
where mixed farming is practised.
Mr. White said --"It will cost as much
to produce a pound of prime beef as
it will a pound of prime butter."
-If we were to believe the Liberal
press, at least part of it, we should
he led to look for the downfall of the
Borden Government at any time.
According to Grit reports, the Gov-
ernment is a failure already, afe
disunited ; some are packing their
grips, etc. As it happens, the Gov-
ernment is united, capable and busi-
ness -like, and has done more real
work already, than was accomplished
in many weeks in previous sessions.
During the comparatively short time
that the Government has been in
power, scarcely a week has gone by
that some special subject has not been
dealt with by a member on the Gov-
ernment side of the house, and has
been sympathetically received and led
to debates in which both sides have
joined with evident Interest, and
with profit to the welfare of the
people.

--Farmers should keep records of
their crops. The Canadian Farm gives
the record for 1911 of Roberts Bros.,
Sparta, Ont., on 185 acres, and it will
be hard to beat. Here it is -25 acres
of wheat, 600 bushels 31 acres of oats,
1,198 bushels ; 24 acres of barley and
oats, 931 bushels ; 10 acres of beans,
325 bushels, or 90 acres of grain yield-
ed 3,057 bushels. Besides, they filled
a silo 11 by 40 feet out of a 12 acre
field, and husked 500 bushels of corn
out of what was left. Another ten
acres of corn yielded 1,125 bushels of
ears. Five acres of peas harvesttyd by
hogs, estimated yield, 100 bushels ; 12
acres of corny ditto 1,000 bushels ; l
acres of mangolds gave a yield of
about 1,200 bushels, 1 acres of pota-
toes 150 bushels, 47 acres of hay 90
tons, and .5 acres of alfalfa, cut three
times, yielded 16 loads. Only the
beans were sold off the farm ; the rest
were used on the farms.

-A change is soon to be invade in
the Health Act of Ontario, and if the
editor of this paper knows anything
oe municipal matters, a change is
desirable. In many places the Health
Act has
been a dead letter and ]bards
of Health in many instances have been
practically a sham. It is reported
that the bill which the Provincial
Secretary and the Provincial Medical
Health officer of the Province are
now preparing, aims to divide the
province into a dozen districts, The
proposition is to place a doctor in
complete oharge of all medical health
Work in each district. The doctors
will submit weekly reports to theY

in touch with the entire ?amines,

Real Estate Investment.
''4'Vith ag9ts soliciting investment
in Western lands, the Ontario buyer
requires the utmost caution, and on
this point The Financial Post utters
a warning :-
There is, perhaps, no business in
Canada which apt eats so much to in-
vestors and speculators alike as traf-
ficing in real estate or land. The
tertp real estate or realty has corse
to be understood as meaning land sub-
divided, or to be subdivided, into
building tote. Land, on the other
hand, means real estate for farm or
other purpcees. The growth of urban
life has brought much farm land into
the sub -divisional arena, sometirnes
making the owners wealthy beyond
their fondest dreams, Thousands of
building lots have likewise been dis-
posed of, each holding out promise or
hope of phenomenal gain, but eventu-
ally to revert back to the farm, minus
the profit and plus a serious lose, with
a sad but valuable experience thrown
in. There are good lots and bad lots,
just as there are good and bad real
estate dealers, and the pity of it ie
that there are enough stupid investors
or unwise speculators to keep the
bad dealers busy selling bad lots. An
honest dealer may, by chance, sell a
bad lot, but not by deliberate mis-
representation. Infallibility ie. not
one of the endowtxzents of either sell-
er or buyer, and things do not always
go as they are planned or expected to
develop. When element of risk is re-
moved, profits, actual or prospective,
usually shrink in like ratio. It may
sometimes be possible to get some-
thing for nothing, but the other fel-
low does not know it. To get nothing
for something is easier, and much
more frequent, especially if the buyEr
happens to reside 1,000 miles away
and is easily impressed by a hand-
some blue print. The bigger the blue
print, the bigger the impression --
sometimes. As an additional bait, the
intended victim may be told that it is
a ground -floor proposition, offered
only to a favored. few, It is thea time
to enquire about the cellar, and for
excavation under that again. Ten to
one that dealer wants your money
more than you need hie lots.
There are plenty of reliable dealers,
and there are plenty of attractive and
reasonably safe dfferings, for the two
go hand in hand. First of all, see the
property that is. offered. If this is
impossible, make inquiries as to the
standing of the dealer -not so rue le
his :financial worth as his aboral re-
sponsibility. Some of the biggest
rogues are very rich, Ask about the
property through your banker or your
lawyer, A $5 fee may save you the
price of the lot. Learn something
of the town in which you intend to
invest., Ask all sorts of questions,
Be a doubter until you are shown.
Be as careful as when you are buying
a pair of boots, The risk of a pinch
will then be minimized.

DRY PICKING POULTRY.
Why do some dressed fowls lose that
bright color, sweet fresh flavor and

Because of a torn, broken, rubbed
or scalded skin. A per'feet dry skin Is
protection against bacteria, but once
broken the flesh beneath is at the
mercy of its environment and soon
swarms.

a scalded fowl, with its destroyed skin
